Hello!

I mentioned in another post or two around here that I am a new user of C3. I set out to make a Christmas game over the past 4 days to try it out and see how I like it. I had done just a tiny bit of experimenting with C2 & C3 a month or two back. Normally I don't like visual / GUI-based programming and engines and much prefer to just program by typing in code. Been doing it that way for decades. lol

BUT when I tested C2 & C3 there was just something different about them. For the first time ever a visual tool seemed highly logical.

And now after making this game in a short period of time I am even more impressed with Construct 3 than I was previously and can definitely say I absolutely like it.

Anyway enough rambling... here is my first Construct 3 game.

You can play it right in your web browser over at GameJolt.

The game has been updated slightly and reuploaded to GameJolt at the link above and is also now available for browser play at itch.io

Hello. I just started using Construct 3 a couple days ago. I'm making a tiny Christmas game to try it out.

Not much done yet of course. Mainly just knocked out some graphics and spent time working in the editor getting the layouts and layers and so forth set up. Then got the basics going on for control and such.

At this point I now need to stop and actually design the game. The stuff in so far is just what I knew I would need at a general level.

Anyway, here is what I have so far...

Ahhh... I had made a couple of gifs and uploaded to my normal hosting (imgur) but doesn't seem to be a way to embed those in the posts here. lol

I will see about posting a video at some point and maybe setting up an account at giphy too.

In the meantime, I just took a couple of screenshots.

Meet Jimmy Christmas Cube...

OOPS! Sorry I just realized I should have posted this in the "How Do I..." forum. If a mod wants to move it over there that'd be awesome.

Hello.

I am very new user of Construct. Tried it out a couple of days and just paid the subscription for Construct 3 today.

My background... I have been making games as a hobby for a long time (since C64 days lol) and typically I just program everything myself.

Doing it with programming it is simple... but I cannot find anything on how to close the Windows desktop game application when the player presses the Esc key.

I am thinking surely it has to be supported. I mean there must be some way to do it we cannot force people to use task manager to close them down. LOL!

So... how do you do it? :)

Thank you very much for taking your time to read and help me out.
